XPlaneROS is a ROS wrapper for the XPlane-11 flight simulator. The wrapper provides functionality for extracting aircraft data from the simulator and feeding control commands to control the aircraft in the simulator.
The main advantage is due to the fact that XPlane is a realistic simulator and thereby provides more realistic dynamics, responses and images.


XPlaneROS interfaces with XPlane simulator using the XPlaneConnect plugin.
